How many countries in the world use the phrase "Thank you for food"? What are they? Thank you for helping me, and I think maybe I did not express myself well. em..I mean the people have to say"thank you for the dinner/meal" every time when they eat together. Just like in Japen people should say "I am starting to eat" every time before the meal in Japenese.

In English, "Thank you for food" sounds as if you had no food to begin with (ie. I was poor and starving). The closest I'd say is, "Thank you for the dinner" or something similar.

In western and Eastern Europe, nobody says it. It is said all over northern Europe though.

Australians say "thanks for that great meal, I really enjoyed it" to a friend who might have cooked it for them or to the manager at a restaurant if their meal was really well prepared.
